NEXTDC announce zero latency access to Google Cloud Melbourne region
BRISBANE, Australia - 29 July 2021. With the formal launch of Google s new Melbourne Cloud Zone, NEXTDC (ASX: NXT) announce the availability of zero latency data exchanges to Google Cloud from their M2 Melbourne data centre.
Today, Google announced the general availability of their new cloud zone for Melbourne. Helping to further enable the journey to Hybrid Cloud, government and enterprise organisations can connect locally, and natively to Google Cloud s Melbourne zone from M2.
M2 Melbourne is the newest cloud hosting location for Google Cloud, offering two Google Interconnect access that offer organisations low-latency, secure access directly to the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) from anywhere in Australia.
NextDC Limited has added access to Google Cloud through its M2 Melbourne data centre with two interconnect access points.
The company said in a statement that this will further enable hybrid cloud for government and enterprise organisations as local access to Google Cloud removes the need for organisations to haul their workloads back to Sydney via intercapital or internet-based connections.
This will reduce latency and connectivity costs, and improve performance for these organisations, the company said.
NextDC chief executive Craig Scroggie said, “The addition of these two new Google Cloud Interconnect services offers enterprise and government organisations greater depth and diversity when optimising their Hybrid and Multi-Cloud strategies. In addition to providing an increased level of security and reliability, these new Google Interconnect locations will vastly expand Australia’s access to one of the world’s fastest growing cloud platforms.”
